TAPE OVER is an international tape art crew established in Berlin since 2011. Their roots are in Berlin’s subcultural electro scene and originally started doing tape art in the city‘s vibrant electro clubs – a creative playground!
Their tape art style includes elements of street art as well as urban art, and is characterized by its versatility and fine detail. In addition, their art reflects what inspires them most – organic forms, abstract shapes, plain design, as well as visual statements.
Each artwork is a unique interpretation of their perception. They also involve the location itself to create special impact as well as to intensify the overall expression.
Fundamentally, they love to experiment. A new creation is always based on passion & creativity – that’s their understanding of art!

He was drawn to tape, stickers, and anything adhesive because of the range of colours, shades, and shapes. Combining his two skills Taped Metal Canvas was born!
www.tapedmetalcanvas.comInspired by the possibility to create something new out of an everyday object, TAPE THAT mostly works with tape as a medium since 2011. With roots in the urban art movement, their works range from complex and colourful tape and light installations to minimalist black and white murals. Their tape artworks can be found in a variety of places, such as underground nightclubs, abandoned buildings, showrooms and galleries. While focused on Berlin, Tape That is active in many other cities, nationally and internationally.
www.tapethatcollective.comWe are proud to support tape artists, especially students and are very excited to be working with George Wark, who has produced an amazing piece of original art in our office.
George is a fine art student at Norwich University of the Arts. He is an abstract artist and a big part of what he does involves using tape to create work. His large wall tape drawings are very striking and have raised a lot of interest and praise from those who have seen them.

Working with tape means for us to discover something new, to develop new techniques, to penetrate completely into other areas and to research – but most of all we follow our artistic passion.
